Bo Xichen’s gaze fell on him, and then he smiled faintly: "Alright, once Mr. Wang’s health improves, we can et up, but Mr. Wang shouldn’t touch alcohol anymore."
He paused: "I forgot to ntion, the material used for Mr. Wang’s stomach...can’t handle alcohol."
King Jingyao was stunned, and after a while, he said: "Does that an I can’t drink alcohol anymore?"
"I guess that’s probably the case." Professor Bo rarely used so many vague words, but hearing this felt like a bolt from the blue to the old brother. For a man like the old brother, beauties and fine wine are essential in life. Appreciating a beauty requires a glass of red wine in hand amidst dim light to fully appreciate the charm; without one elent, the original flavor is lost.
The old brother looked directly at Uncle Bo and choked out: "Can it be switched back?"
Uncle Bo smiled: "Probably not."
The old brother asked again: "Did the kid know the properties of the material?"
Uncle Bo thought for a mont and then betrayed his own little one: "I highlighted it."
Old Brother Wang gritted his teeth: "That little brat! I’ll settle this with her."
But thinking that Bo Xichen was there, he didn’t say anything further.
Haha, Xichen used to be such a promising young man. Ever since he’s been with her, he’s changed, and also...turned bad.
The old brother was sulking, just as the old lady and Wang Jingchuan pushed the door open and entered, hearing those words. The old lady imdiately scolded: "You’re lying here, almost lost your life, and you’re still thinking about those few drinks. You’re even scolding your sister; if it wasn’t for the brat in your mouth, your life would have been gone. Do you think that Jiang researcher could have saved you?"
King Jingyao feared nothing more than the old lady. Being scolded, he pinched his nose and remained silent for a long ti.
The old lady saw that he was intimidated and ordered him to lie down, then gently said to Bo Xichen: "I know you’ve worked hard, just got off the plane and ca to see this old fool, but he’s soone who doesn’t know gratitude. You just focus on treating him. If he does anything wrong, feel free to tell , and I’ll discipline him."
Bo Xichen smiled: "Mr. Wang is just fond of drinking, it’s not a big deal."
The old lady, insightful as ever, smiled as she sat on the sofa: "Xichen, you’re so polite, always calling him Mr. Wang. I know that kid Anxi was wronged, and you’ve grown distant from our family. I don’t bla you."
She then looked at her son: "You too, should check your conscience and ask yourself if you’ve demolished the bridge after crossing it, forgetting those who dig the well. You’ve buried the well digger so soon."
The old brother turned over, really not wanting to hear his mother’s scolding.
Just thinking about that little brat, probably enjoying super treatnt at the Bo Family, with Lin Yun gently taking care of her like a little baby, while he is just the old guy in his mother’s mouth.
Both are soone’s children, how could the difference be so great?
Thinking about it made the old brother want to shed a tear, the more he thought, the sadder he got...
The old lady originally wanted to scold so more, but Bo Xichen gently shook his head and then smiled.
The smile was rather mysterious.
After a mont, he lightly coughed and said: "I’ll go take a shower first, and co back later."
The old lady, being so perceptive, imdiately understood, and nodded: "Alright, you’ve worked hard, Xichen."
After Uncle Bo left, the old lady went over to turn her son’s body.
Old Brother Wang faced away from her, ignoring.
The old lady was amused and annoyed: "Still know how to get angry? You, at your age, even getting jealous like a child?"
The old lady didn’t say much about big making way for small but said: "Anxi is a girl, many people spoil her. No matter how capable she is, she’s still a little girl. You tell how you can be angry like that and kick her."
King Jingyao remained silent.
The old lady continued: "Alright, alright, I know why you’re upset, it’s just about your stance. As for Zhou Yunchen, if you manage to get him out of Beicheng, your sister will make peace with you."
King Jingyao still didn’t make a sound, just grinding his fine white teeth: Where’s such a good thing? If he gets Zhou Yunchen to leave, he and that little brat probably wouldn’t want to see each other ever again, given her character.
However, it’s probably about the sa now.
He kept facing away, and the old lady wanted to say more but couldn’t, and considering her son’s strong nature, she couldn’t say much about feeling sorry for him. (A few seconds of sympathy for the old brother.)
Later, that Jiang researcher ca to check on the patient again, being very attentive. The old lady didn’t object, she was quite open-minded. Her son being in a bad mood having a woman to distract him was also good. She didn’t worry about Jingyao wanting to marry her, she knew her son’s character quite well; if he’s not interested, he’s really not interested. Otherwise, he wouldn’t be alone for so many years...
The old lady sowhat cared about Bo Xichen’s feelings and went to comfort him for a while, taking care of everything.
The old lady was very shrewd. Despite her son’s high status, combining the Bo Family, the Lin Family, and with the addition of a subdued Min Xin, they were sufficient to solidify the situation. Min Xin was considered subdued by Anxi, perhaps he listened to Anxi more. One must admit, the old lady was truly the old lady, wise and calculating.
Bo Xichen was very respectful to elders, speaking softly and thoughtfully with the old lady, but also thorough.
Finally, the old lady teased while laughing: "I see you’re much more slippery with that little brat."
Bo Xichen just smiled slightly.
The old lady had no choice but to give up, though she didn’t return to the ward, disliking the sycophancy of that Jiang woman, couldn’t stand it.
When she went back, she personally picked a few nice things, sent one to the Bo Family, and another to Lin Hua, considering this matter settled for her son.
anwhile, Bo Xichen had so free ti, rested briefly, and made a call back to Si Garden.
Bo Nianyao answered, speaking softly, afraid of disturbing the nap of the little brat in the guest room, "Xichen, Anxi is taking a nap, your mother stayed and wouldn’t leave."
Bo Xichen smiled, "Okay, when she wakes up, let her have so ginseng soup. I’ve noticed she’s lost weight over the past few days."
Bo Nianyao laughed heartily, "Don’t worry, the old man already arranged that. He cares for her a lot."
Bo Xichen was a bit surprised, and Bo Nianyao just chuckled, "Don’t believe it? ... brat now is the apple of the old man’s eye. These past years, we haven’t seen him care so much about anyone. Not even when Bo Jin was a child did he shower this much affection."
Actually, he knew the old man’s mind well. It’s just that Anxi excels at everything and he wants to follow wherever Anxi goes. The old man is probably tired of eating vegetarian and chanting Buddha on the mountaintop.
As he said this, Bo Xichen just chuckled, "Anxi’s constitution is quite peculiar too."
Bo Nianyao couldn’t help but say, "Peculiar what? Didn’t you go to Qingcheng and swiftly bring him back?"
Bo Xichen was a bit overwheld by his father’s teasing, said a few more words, and hung up the phone. When he went to the ward, Jiang Chaoge was still there. When she saw him, she gave a slight smile, "Senior Brother."
Bo Xichen nodded slightly.
Jiang Chaoge actually felt a bit uncomfortable. She had liked Bo Xichen for many years, but in the end, she was defeated by her admiration for power. Even though she did these things, she still cared about Bo Xichen’s opinion of her, fearing he would have a bad impression due to Gu Anxi.
Bo Xichen wouldn’t know her thoughts. For people he’s indifferent to, he wouldn’t speculate on their thoughts, so Jiang Chaoge once again miscalculated. No matter how composed she acted, no one cared.
Old Wang was aware of the previous matters, and seeing Jiang Chaoge’s attitude, he understood almost everything. However, he didn’t care; the only thing he cared about was the project.
That project must be secured.
So when they appeared together, even though he was weak, he struck while the iron was hot, "Chaoge, arrange a eting with that William, let’s negotiate the terms. Everything is negotiable. In any case, this project must be completed by our own people."
Old Wang thought it through thoroughly. First, they would secure the project themselves, and if they encountered technical issues, they would coax Xichen a bit, and just pay a consultancy fee. If successful, they’d earn a fortune.
The old man’s plan was astute, just waiting for Bo Xichen to reject William. At this point, judging from Bo Xichen’s expression, Jiang Chaoge guessed his intent and agreed imdiately, then smiled at Bo Xichen and said, "Yes, Senior Brother, whether we agree or not, we can at least et and discuss."
Bo Xichen smiled faintly, neither refusing nor agreeing, and when Jiang Chaoge asked a few more questions, he replied softly, "If it’s about investing, we need to discuss it with Anxi, after all, the finances of the Cloud He Group are currently in her hands."
As he finished speaking, Jiang Chaoge’s expression turned a bit ugly.
Mostly from jealousy.
That’s over a trillion in assets, all in Gu Anxi’s hands, so she whispered, "When Uncle and Aunt made that decision, weren’t they too hasty, considering it’s the Bo Family’s legacy built over a hundred years."
Old Wang also chid in, "Yes, Xichen, a man shouldn’t be without money. Nianyao and his wife were rather hasty."
Bo Xichen paused briefly, then smiled, "In fact, it wasn’t just my parents, over half of the Gu family’s assets are also under Anxi’s na, as are those of my mother-in-law’s family... Speaking of recklessness, isn’t Mr. Wang reckless too?"
Wang Jingyao’s face turned a shade of red. In the heat of the mont, he wanted to give her everything, not expecting Xichen to seize on this.
With this, Jiang Chaoge beca even more envious, grudgingly saying, "If she wasn’t greedy for these, she shouldn’t have accepted them either."
Bo Xichen smiled, "Who says she isn’t greedy? Anxi loves money very much."
Jiang Chaoge was montarily speechless, don’t n dislike gold-digging girls the most? How did it beco a virtue with Gu Anxi?
Old Wang wholeheartedly agreed, "She is a financial fanatic, nurtured by Gu Yuanshan. Zhou Yunchen is just like her, the two of them really are kindred spirits."
After saying this, he realized he had spoken from the heart, so he shut up.
At this ti, only Jiang Chaoge felt that Bo Xichen had shifted the topic with just a few words, he didn’t want to engage with this project at all, which was best, then she could collaborate with Wang Jingyao directly and manage everything later on.
After Bo Xichen left, Wang Jingyao finally realized and said to Jiang Chaoge, "See, he diverted the topic, he isn’t interested, which is even better."
After speaking, he said with a dark expression, "You must secure that William."
Jiang Chaoge nodded.
Once she left, she imdiately contacted Mr. William, and to her surprise, Mr. William had completely changed his attitude and said he wanted to directly assign the project to her, with a budget of fifty billion.
Jiang Chaoge was stupefied.
Is there really such a good opportunity in the world?
She was initially skeptical, but William explained fluently in Chinese that his father’s health had deteriorated, and if they held onto the project, it might spoil in their hands, so he trusted Wang Jingyao’s team.
Realizing this, Jiang Chaoge was relieved. Initially, she wanted to discuss it with Wang Jingyao, but with fifty billion, if she convinced Uncle Jiang to secure it, then the project would be entirely hers.
By then, many things could develop...
She wanted not only the project but also the position of Mrs. Wang!
So, that night Jiang Chaoge went to the Jiang Family and talked with Jiang Bin in the study for four hours, finally, Jiang Bin made the decision—
Fifty billion, secured!
Jiang Chaoge breathed a sigh of relief. When she left the study, her legs were wobbly.
The project was hers, and once the developnt was completed, it would be globally astounding. By then, she would be the illustrious Mrs. Wang, respected by Wang Jingyao, and those who looked down on her, would be forced to respect her.
